For 18+ years, Nash walks a unique path as a professional magician by day and a crisis line volunteer by night. Both seemingly different paths taught him one unifying lesson: the power of curiosity. From the crisis line, Nash learned we can empower others by using our empathetic curiosity to listen, to understand, and support. From creating illusions, he learned how curiosity is the spark that drives innovative ideas.
